IOW treating the Fiery as a CMYK as opposed to RGB device worked for you?
I do not attempt to keep a running tally of the capabilities of every RIP I
deal with, I just build a CMYK profile, see if it works externally, and if so
see if I can find an internal location to apply it (if not a color servier
may be in order.) If I can't get it to accept a CMYK profile, then I try an
RGB one... failing that, I suggest that the RIP may not be color managable at
all. Nothing is much more frustrating than a studio with four or five Fiery
boxes that all look alike on the outside, but which have differing software
with varying capabilities!
